b. +. Harris, whose illness we have men
toned from time to time, died at his home
on Tuesday morning, January 18th, after an
illness of nearly two years. He was born at
Spriugport, Cayuga County, New York, on
November 22d, 1929, being at the time of
his death, ffty-seven years, one month and
twenty one days of age. In the year 1861,
he was married to Francis E,son; they came
to Hamilton, where he has since resided, a
kind and affectionate husband and father,
and beloved by his neighbors. Physicians
treated him for liberation of the bowels, but
post-mortem examination revealed a cancer.
For a number of months back, and especial
ly during the last two weeks of his life, he
suffered intensely, until death kindly came
to his relief and he fell asleep; asleep in
Jesus, blessed sleep, from which none ever
wake to weep" The funeral was held at his
late residence, on Friday last. The services
were conducted by Rev. q. A. Buell. of Ban
gor, assisted 10y Rev. MIR. Gosling of Keller
The sermon was "A very impressive and APP
propriate one, from these words, 81 am the
resurrection and the life," John, l1-25. The
casket was deposited in the Hamilton Gene
tory, 10y the side of his son Roy. The de-
ceased leaves a wife and two grown daughters
to mourn his loss. This is the second time
they have been called on to pass under the
rod" within year. Hosts of sympathizing
friends aud ueighbors extend their heartfelt
sympathy to them in this, their sad bereave
ment.

Prairie, had rather hard time with his
horses last Sunday. He started for this vii
lage in the morning but, after going a short
distance, the horses jumped sideways tipped
the cutter over, threw Mr. II. out and ran
back home. He went back and secured the
team and drove TO town hurriedly, for the
hour at which he was expected TO preach
was close at hand. He put the horses in
Merwin's barn, but when the hostler under
took to put the blankets on, one of them
kicked him over. and then the reverend gen.
tleman undertook to handle them himself,
when the horse kicked him on the ankle,
making severe cut nearly three inches long.
